How do you re-mortar front steps?

To re-mortar front steps, first remove any loose or crumbling mortar using a chisel and hammer. Clean the joints thoroughly to ensure proper adhesion, then mix new mortar according to the manufacturer's instructions. Apply the fresh mortar into the joints using a pointing trowel, ensuring it is packed tightly and smoothed out. Finally, allow the mortar to cure according to the instructions, keeping it damp if necessary to prevent cracking.
